Doctor Who Zombies

A few weeks ago, we tasked you with zombifying the Doctor and co, for our first ever SFX Art Challenge. Here are a selection of the best pieces of art/clever Photoshoppery that you sent us!

Let's kick things off with our top five, counting down from five to our overall winner! We'll follow that with ten runners-up.

IN FIFTH PLACE a zombie Rose and Sarah Jane by Stephen Wardle
Less a case of "eat more chips" here than "eat more brains"...

IN FOURTH PLACE A zombie Slitheen by Marion Cromb

IN THIRD PLACE A zombie Draconian by Piers Hazell

This is just one of a host of drawings sent to us by Piers (who's been drawing these for a while - great minds think alike, eh?) Click on the links to see the following zombified: Third Doctor Fourth Doctor Cyberman Sontaran The Master Sea Devil Zygon

IN SECOND PLACE A zombie Eleventh Doctor (in a fez!) by Marietta Gurk


AND IN FIRST PLACE A zombie Cyberman by Matthew Jackson

Matthew also sent us an equally fantastic zombie Ice Warrior . Check it out!

All of the people in that top five will be receiving some free Doctor Who goodies!

Next up - and in particular order - here's ten more runners-up who also created some sterling work.
Well done, people!

First up, a zombified Fourth Doctor from Damien May

Amy and the Doctor fighting off some zombie-Cyberman hordes, by James Rees

A zombie Dalek from Dan Pritchard

A poster for a horrifying Tenth Doctor movie by Sarah Duff

Peter Shorney freely admits that his artwork is "a bit rushed". So why's this drawing featuring zombified versions of the First Doctor, Susan and Ian lumbering after Barbara a runner-up? Because of the title: "They're coming to get you, Barbara!" Clever.

A zombie Ood from Paul Kercal

Another zombie Eleventh Doctor (bit Simpsons, innit?) from Luke Lilly

These two look armless enough... By GigerPunk

All eleven Doctors zombified by Stephen Byrne

And finally, a zombie Cyberman by Stephen Dray

Thanks a million to everybody who took the time to put pen to paper/slave away over a hot PC - we really do appreciate it. If you didn't make the top 15, why not post your entry in this thread and share it with the dwellers of our forum?

We'll be issuing another SFX ART CHALLENGE shortly... keep your eyes peeled!
